Hand Release Heaven!

21 Traditioners including 2 FNG’s prosted for a brief introduction to Merkvember!!  Proof that the Tradition pax is getting smarter was displayed this morning, when a select few of our brightest picked up on the fact that every second exercise was the hand release merkin!  YHC also showed that he is slowly getting dumber by forgetting that every second exercise was the hand release merkin……Good thing I had Pharaoh there to point out every mistake i made…..Fear not!  He was punished for his efforts towards the end of the workout, while the rest of the pax watched and rested!

It went a little something like this;
